We would go again!

Our driver, Shaun, brought our 4-star review to a 5. The prompt pickup, clean bus, timely schedule, and arrival at both locations was as expected. We had a glorious day to explore both magnificent locations 🤩. Review would have been a 4 since the bus air conditioning did not seem to work well (but was tolerable and not the fault of the driver), and the co-host who was meant to narrate the drive was not present (again, not the driver's fault). Shaun did a great job when it was safe to jump on the microphone and point out significant landmarks with historical or economic context (wildlife corridors, Castle Mountain, etc.) yet was wise to prioritize safe driving. We would make this reservation again. Very grateful to have gone to Lake Louise and Moraine Lake. Our pickup time was 2pm in Canmore.

Great views, relaxed tour

The host driver (Dave) was great. Really knowledgeable, clearly from and spent a lot of time in athe area. He was really relaxed in his style with a good sense of humor. Stoppage times were good. The only only improvement would be for an extra half hour at lake Louise so you could walk thr full length of the lake and back. But tbh half way along the path was still breathtaking. I think is suited all travellers too as their wad a mixture of ages and group sizes, everyone seemed to enjoy it.

Great trip

Nice easy pick up in Banff.. Smooth ride to both lakes and easy drop off.. An hour at each lake was good to do a small walk take pictures and enjoy.

Parking heads up

If people who are taking this tour aren’t staying in a hotel near the pick up site, knowing that you have to look for street parking/parking lot would be helpful in planning your arrival (we totally lucked out and got a near by parking on the street)

The shuttle is really convenient way to go into lake Louise and lake moraine. We were unable to secure the public bus shuttle and managed to book this one day before our trip. Our guide David is amazing and friendly, highly recommend!
